My family has been wielding knives for generations, but now it's my turn to wield a pen!

"Okay, I'll punch it!"

Helian Zhaoyue bit her red lips, her voice almost squeezed out from between her teeth.

After saying that, Helian Zhaoyue reached out and placed her hand on Jiang Xiaobai's leg, gently patting it.

Jiang Xiaobai leaned against the carriage, smiling as he looked at Helian Zhaoyue.

This woman was very powerful when she framed him and got him imprisoned.

Now that he's seized the opportunity, he naturally has to collect some interest.

But before long, the smile on Jiang Xiaobai's face gradually disappeared.

Helian Zhaoyue clenched her teeth, her eyes were red, and tears were streaming down her face.

This……

Jiang Xiaobai felt somewhat reluctant to watch.

Ultimately, Helian Zhaoyue was also the daughter of the King of Beiyu.

Now, to be massaging his legs in front of so many people is indeed a bit embarrassing.

Teng Zixiu sat beside him, her fists clenched so tightly they cracked, her eyes filled with anger as she looked at Jiang Xiaobai.

Helian Mingchuan's expression was also extremely unpleasant.

His sister was so highly respected in Beiyu, yet she was being humiliated by Jiang Xiaobai. As her older brother, he was naturally just as angry.

But... what can we do?

That cannon is currently unsolvable!

The eighteen gates were already so terrifying.

If Jiang Xiaobai were to create tens of thousands of doors, what would Beiyu use to defend itself?

The more Helian Mingchuan thought about it, the heavier his heart became, and finally he cursed under his breath.

Damn it, how could there be such a stupid thing as Jiang Xiaobai in this world?

They even built cannons!

And then there's the weapon in Jiang Xiaobai's hand that can kill at will.

Those two guards were quite strong, but they didn't even have a chance to make a move against Jiang Xiaobai.

What if that thing could also be mass-produced?

Upon realizing this possibility, Helian Mingchuan's expression changed again, and his heart sank to the bottom.

The carriage traveled along the road and finally came to a slow stop outside the Martyrs' Shrine.

Hearing Zhang Xinnian's voice outside, Jiang Xiaobai pulled her legs back.

Looking at Helian Zhaoyue sitting there wiping away her tears, he frowned slightly and said, "Don't feel wronged!"

"When you framed me and threw me in jail, I didn't cry and whine like you do!"

After saying that, Jiang Xiaobai didn't say anything more and pulled Li Zhiwei down from the carriage.

Helian Zhaoyue sat there, biting her red lips tightly.

After wiping away the tears on her face, she looked up at Jiang Xiaobai's departing figure and said, "Jiang Xiaobai, I hate you!"

"Ha, if you hate me, you'll have to wait in line!"

Jiang Xiaobai waved his hand without turning his head and said, "In this vast capital city, there are many people who hate me. You... you're not even in the top ranks yet!"

After saying that, Jiang Xiaobai took Li Zhiwei's hand, and led the Princess and Tang Ningshuang ahead of him towards the Martyrs' Shrine.

Helian Mingchuan glanced at his younger sister and sighed softly.

He knew that his younger sister had always been extremely proud.

now……

Shaking his head, Helian Mingchuan looked at the old man beside him and said, "Elder Dong, you stay here and take good care of the princess!"

That's right, his involvement is sufficient for the matter of going to pay respects.

Since Helian Zhaoyue was feeling distressed, let her stay in the carriage for the time being.

After giving his instructions, Helian Mingchuan led the Northern Yu delegation off the carriage.

Upon seeing this, the Qi delegation also followed suit.

As you enter the Martyrs' Shrine, a sense of solemnity greets you.

There were numerous memorial tablets enshrined in front, densely packed, layer upon layer.

Because there were so many memorial tablets, several huge stone tablets were also erected behind them.

The stone tablet was also covered with names.

These names are very clear because they were newly engraved.

Behind each of these names lies a life lost on the battlefield.

Jiang Xiaobai looked up at the memorial tablet and stone tablet in front of him, and the smile on his face completely disappeared.

Inside the Martyrs' Shrine, it was so quiet you could hear a pin drop.

Jiang Xiaobai stood there for a moment, then finally clasped his hands together and bowed deeply to all the memorial tablets.

Every single soldier in his Great Hua army is a true man!

For the sake of the people behind him, for the sake of the territory of the Great Hua, he was willing to leave his life on the battlefield. He deserves this bow!

Li Bingzhang, Jiang Jingcheng, and the others who followed behind, including the eldest princess, also bowed and clasped their hands in greeting upon seeing this scene, their expressions equally solemn.

Tang Ningshuang, who especially wanted to join the army, looked extremely solemn.

A moment later, Jiang Xiaobai straightened up and turned to look at the delegations from both countries: "Alright, it's your turn!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Zhang Xinnian walked up from the side and distributed the incense that had been prepared in advance.

Helian Mingchuan looked at the incense in his hand, his fingers tightening slightly.

humiliation!

This was an immense humiliation for Beiyu!

It should be noted that the people enshrined in the Martyrs' Shrine also have the blood of the people of Beiyu and Qi on their hands.

Now, Jiang Xiaobai has actually made the delegations from both countries personally offer incense and pay homage to these people.

But when the image of the eighteen cannons firing simultaneously reappeared in Helian Mingchuan's mind, the anger in his heart was forcibly suppressed.

Finally, Helian Mingchuan took the tinder from Zhang Xinnian, lit the incense himself, and walked to the memorial tablets.

The rest of the Northern Yu delegation could only follow suit after seeing this.

The Qi delegation was even more decisive, stepping forward one after another to insert the incense sticks in their hands into the incense burner.

Throughout the entire process, no one from either delegation spoke.

"Young Master Jiang, is this... alright?"

After offering incense, Helian Mingchuan turned to look at Jiang Xiaobai and spoke while suppressing his anger.

"It's ready!"

Jiang Xiaobai smiled and nodded, then turned to Zhang Xinnian and said, "By the way, we should erect a new monument here later!"

"Arrange for another craftsman to guard the place, and have the name of anyone who comes to worship there engraved on it!"

At this point, Jiang Xiaobai glanced at the members of the two delegations: "This time, let's write down the names of everyone in both delegations!"

"Alright, Your Highness!"

Zhang Xinnian nodded emphatically and said, "Once we get back, I'll immediately find the craftsmen to make the arrangements!"

Upon hearing this, the members of both diplomatic corps looked grim once again.

If their names were truly engraved here, wouldn't all those who come to pay homage to the martyrs know that the delegations from Beiyu and Qi had once come here specifically to offer incense?

That face...

It looks like it's going to be lost in both countries!

But after exchanging glances, no one dared to voice their objection.

Jiang Xiaobai looked at the frustrated expressions of the two delegations, sneered, and led the way out of the Martyrs' Shrine.

That's right, he had absolutely no sympathy for these people.

After all, the delegations from both countries did not have pure motives for coming to Dahua this time, so this is deserved!

After getting back onto the carriage, Helian Zhaoyue had composed herself and her demeanor had returned to normal.

Upon seeing Jiang Xiaobai enter, Helian Zhaoyue's expression turned slightly cold, and she immediately turned her head to look out the window.

Clearly, they didn't want to pay any attention to Jiang Xiaobai.

Jiang Xiaobai smiled at this, not paying any attention, and sat down on his own.

The carriage slowly moved forward, heading back towards the capital.

During the journey, Jiang Xiaobai thought of something and looked at Helian Zhaoyue, saying, "By the way, I'm planning to go to the Jing Shang Yi Pin Lou restaurant tomorrow!"

"Your Highness, if you have no other plans, why don't you go and take another look around?"

"good!"

This time, Helian Zhaoyue did not refuse, and nodded indifferently in agreement.

Jiang Xiaobai's lips curled up.

According to his prediction, Xiao Qingxiu will most likely be released by the Princess tomorrow.

As the current president, he naturally needs to hand over the reins to Xiao Qingxiu, the former president.

And then there's the perfume business; if he doesn't talk to Xiao Qingxiu about it, he always feels a bit bored.

After all, this young prince had ridiculed him quite a bit when he first brought up the perfume business!

I wonder what kind of expression the young prince will have at that time!

Thinking of this, laughter echoed from inside the carriage, carrying far away...

……

Ah, it's Guanzhong... no, it's the fourth watch of the night!
